OH MY GOSH THE FIRST ONE IS MY DAD!!!!! I can tell you that they’re ALWAYS that generous with their food, camera or not. He refuses to let people leave with a bad experience. Definitely stop by Eastway Gourmet for good food and nice laughs!!! *he has the best jokes :)*
No way! My parents are going to NYC this December, and we're hoping to join - breakfast sammiches are one of my fav things, and his look amazing! This was my recommendation to them after watching the video, I hope we get to try it :)
Hey Jon, just wanted to say we spent 2 beautiful weeks in NYC in August literally BASED on your video recommendations. Our 2 kids kept looking for you at every spot, unfortunately we didn’t see you :-) I not only wanted to thank you for your precious content, I also wanted to let you know: We still watch your videos as you can see and miss NYC so much!
@@darealemveepeeI’m ngl as a bk native this guy gives good recommendations for restaurants but he’s even better for tourists bc his videos feed into what tourists want to visualize the city as before coming, and the vids make tourists feel like they’re more in the loop when us natives know where to really go Also Only evil people are gonna tell tourists to go to E NY or tremont ave for fun 😂 even the nice parts of other boroughs people don’t care enough to go to
The default standard for a New York breakfast. You can get it practically anywhere, and it's hard to mess up unless the roll is stale. Pair this with the classic Arizona iced tea, and that's your classic NYC breakfast. 💯
Great video idea! I got out of the R rain and looked across the platform at the open train and saw you!!! In a suit formal outfit. I couldn't believe it!! And another day once I saw Adriana by my preschool where I work!!! I said hi, she was super nice! God bless you both in everything you do!
Hey thanks for covering East Way! Live 1/2 a block away and can assure that their sandwiches are ALWAYS this big and delicious, plus the entire staff are some of the nicest people around. All praise to East Way!
Fun fact. Company producing Arizona Iced tea started in Brooklyn in 1971 and started making teas after Snapple in 1992. And 92 when got to US and was drinking lot of Arizona in 90s :)
I love when i moved back, i got a bacon egga n' cheese as a first. Part of my childhood and just a memory bomb. Personally, just light black pepper is fine for me since the ketchup can make it too soggy, especially if they make it with some good butter on the roll
John thanks for making this video, with so much turmoil In the world lately It's nice to escape from this even If it's only for a few minutes! Shout out to Ming & Ben !
Hey Jon! I love when you have Ming and Ben on with you. Bacon, egg, and cheese on a sesame bagel is my favorite, too. I don't use ketchup but if they accidentally added it, I would eat it. My local bagel shop here on Long Island (Avenue Bagel) is a small spot that does everything right. Occasionally, I add home fries to the mix. That's a sandwich that will hold you for hours. It's sad to see so many diners disappearing. A good diner is more than food, it's part of your social life. I love the idea of fusion...Asian or other ethnicities putting their take on classics and new will pump new life into the experience.
John, you crack me up mate! The comment re "would you put ketchup on a bacon egg and cheese?" and then you said "I say, yes, as long as it's on a roll"! So, if it was in Texas toast, no ketchup? Or a tortilla? lol. I love your work man
If Ben works for the mta railroad then I say big respect to him . I work for the railways in England , it’s a hard job and sometimes you need a good sandwich at two in the morning.
a classic NYC BEC is def something I wanna try. We've got a version in Toronto using peameal (Canadian back bacon) on a Kaiser roll and it's sometimes considered the city's unofficial signature food alongside Caribbean patties
A BEC isn’t that difficult to replicate at home. The charm of a BEC is physically walking in a busy crowded city environment and getting it. Especially if you’re working or a college student in NYU because it’s like a mini oasis during a stressful week
So fun fact I went to Washington Iriving HS which is up the block from that deli…. Back in the day we couldn’t bring our phones to school, so the deli guys would charge us 1$ if you bought breakfast and maybe 2 or 3 if you didn’t to hold our phones until the end of the day…. Love you guys
$17 for a BEC is wild. Only ocky way can justify that price because you pay for the entertainment value as well and general ock is a celebrity at this point so it’s well worth it.
Living in New York my whole life, I never really thought about bacon egg and cheese being a local thing. I guess I shouldn't take that and the best pizza and bagels for granted. SPK all day, by the way, you can't have it any other way.
There is a nice charm of walking into a place and getting a bite. Outside of NYC, in most places in America, most Americans have to get in a car and drive to a generic chain food place for an experience that lacks charm
@@richardkim9952I don’t relate to that. I’m not from NY and have lived all over the USA and every single place I’ve lived a Bacon Egg and Cheese was extremely popular and able to be purchased at any bagel shop or deli
54 years ago, I would be walking to school and stop by a little corner grocery store/deli called Fishies. Run by a wonderful couple. I would give them a quarter and they would give me a kaiser roll with the other liverwurst a bologna on it. That’s what I would take to school for lunch. It was heaven. I’m so jealous because we cannot get Kaiser rolls down here in the deep south.
$17 for a sandwich is insane. Part of the reason why these sandwiches has always been a stipple in NYC is because of the affordability. They use to cost $2 .. $2.50 the most back in 2010. And you get the $1 Arizona. As a high schooler everyone could afford it. Now by house it cost $5 which isn’t bad but $17 is crazy.
On Sundays I always go to Leo's Bagels on Hanover Square to get my bacon egg and cheese on a cinnamon raisin bagel with salt, pepper and ketchup. So good!
That last one, you did look really good with the milk bun. Never had that before. & I wouldn't mind trying that I think you said French toast or cinnamon. Something bagel that looks good to.
I went to Tompkins back when I visited in May and it was one of the best bacon egg and cheese I’ve ever had. I’ll be back this Halloween to try the other places. Saludos from Chicago Jon!!!
I’m from New Jersey my go to breakfast. There’s a bacon egg and cheese with potatoes on it. EVERY MORNING! you have to add that nicely cooked home fries on there for a beautiful texture. So filling. Makes me happy to start my day w it n some chocolate milk. Play some drums n ready to go. lol
Not only are you keeping ketchup far away from my baconeggandcheesesaltpeppa but if you accidentally put it on there I'm handing that whole thing back because you can wipe it off all you want but ketchup is still the only thing you're gonna taste when you bite into it.
Nothing like adding some nicely seasoned and cooked home fries onto the sandwich. Omggggg 😋 literally what I’m eating right now it’s my go to breakfast every morning.
I'll be in New York in 2 weeks, I'm staying a few blocks from East Way Gourmet can't wait to start my day with a bacon egg and cheese 👌🤤 love from Ireland 🇮🇪
your videos are rad, being from Brazil and being able to be in touch with N.Y.C food and whatnots is just perfect. I´ve been wathcing your videos for a while and I don´t usually post any comments, yet I would say that you really know what you do, keep doing your things, we learn so much from your videos and you´re a pro bro!
I lived up state for 10 years, moved back to NC and I kinda miss eating BEC on a kaiser roll. everything here is on a biscuit. don't get me wrong a good biscuit like bojangles is amazing but a BEC on kaiser roll just hits different.
I'm going back just for the bagels 🥯 Liberty Bagels Midtown hands down was my favorite spot . I might even go as far as saying the best thing I ate overall in NYC . Living in California Bay Area nothing comes close .
The best bacon egg and cheese sandwich I've had recently is at a new place called Afternoon on Broadway and 107th street (across the street from Absolute Bagels). It's a Korean-style egg sandwich on toasted milk bread. The eggs are insane, I don't know how they get them to be so fluffy!
When I want to fill up for the morning I’ll get that with an everything bagel from the local shop. Now that you’ve done NYC. Come across the river to NJ and have the staple Taylor Ham/Pork Roll Egg and Cheese. Gotta do it right.
I just got back from a 4 day trip to NYC for my first time and I loved it. I went to John's of Bleeker Pizzeria as well as Bleecker Street pizza, Sarge's Deli, Top of the Rock, took a cruise on the NYC Ferry for $4, visited DUMBO, ate at a late night halal cart, and saw Lion King on broadway. I also did some things on my own like eat at Buvette and Vinegar Hill House. Thanks so much for your videos. The next time I'm in New York I'll definitely be checking out jackson heights, harlem, flushing, queens, and way more based on your videos.
New York is actually a fun city. For whatever reason you get people posting that the city is terrible and they can’t wait to go home when nothing bad happens to them
This is a big controversy amongst my family and friends…I’m of the opinion that you can put whatever you like on your BEC but some say anything else besides butter is blasphemous. I get bored having it the same way all the time…some times I like ketchup, sometimes mayo…however you like it that’s what it is. 80% of the time I’m getting a BEC toasted, pepper, butter! 🤤 please don’t burn my eggs though! A good BEC in the morning makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside, pure NY comfort food!
I used to get them from a little hole in the wall. The guy would say, "Ok, bacona egg onna roll with a slice. Saltpepperketchup?" They were my mainstay breakfast.
The best I had was from Amsterdam Cafe in the Upper West Side. Bacon egg n cheese salt pepper ketchup came on a poppy seed roll in foil. Hot chocolate in the winter, Tropicana orange juice or Snapple orangeade in the summer.
The difference between a deli and a bodega is that the bodega is ran by Dominicans, use to be Puerto Ricans mostly. We call all Arabic ran stores “the a-rabs” or “the Ocs”(ox)
Quintessential experience is from a bodega. It has four ingredients 1. An egg over medium/hard NEVER SCRAMBLED!!! 2. bacon 3. American cheese 4. a hard roll (only available in the greater NYC area) Bagels, other rolls, nope. Salt, pepper, slight stripe of ketchup are the only condiments.
Another good spot for the BEC is Best Bagel & Coffee. Even with it's touristy location, it's outstanding though yes the bagels are better at Tompkins (I generally get it on a roll at Best.)
The sandwiches have to be good because the of the cut throat competition. In other parts of America sandwiches are mediocre because there is not much competition due to the low population density
Yes i would put Ketchup on my bacon egg and cheese sanwich sometimes hot sauce too . @HereBeBarr 🍩🍪🍧🍦🍌😂 plus the ocki way gotta hit em up bro .yeah their a little extreme but damn its crazy madd good though. I also like the oreo cheese cream bagel 😊❤ damb right Lol .
If there’s 2 breakfast food that us NYers do right, and dare I say it…..better than any place in America, it’s the baconeggandcheese and the bagel with cream cheese. Now I personally hate all condiments unless it’s soy sauce, lemon pepper sauce, and garlic Parmesan sauce (I’m a picky eater) with a baconeggandcheese I get mine with more eggs (egg whites, because I don’t like egg yolks), salt&pepper, and then some everything but the bagel seasoning. For a bagel with cream cheese, it’s gotta be evenly spread out and I usually get an everything bagel.
Fantastic Jon….my fave would be the first one, I like the soft milk bun. They all looked scrumptious though and I’d be guilty of eating one of those tasty morsels on the way to work. I’m a ketchup on the bun as well…❤❤❤

The first place looked the best! You can’t beat the old school bodegas!
They all looked good but that 1st one looked the best to me. Yum 😋
The default standard for a New York breakfast. You can get it practically anywhere, and it's hard to mess up unless the roll is stale. Pair this with the classic Arizona iced tea, and that's your classic NYC breakfast. 💯
Nothing better than getting a BEC from the local bodega or deli, and watch it being cooked in front of you. 😊😋

Yes! This is the way 😀 To start a day. Ty 4 showcasing an important meal of the day with your friends. Much enjoyed - C U on the next 1✅
New Yorker here, on a bacon or sausage egg and cheese I always get SPK.... SALT, PEPPER, KETCHUP!!
John thanks for making this video, with so much turmoil In the world lately It's nice to escape from this even If it's only for a few minutes! Shout out to Ming & Ben !
Glad you enjoyed it
So blessed to eat 3 BECs in one day, no wonder New Yorkers are obsessed with it 🎉🎉
Thanks for joining me my friends!!
Where obsessed Cause it's cheap good eats
Hash browns on burgers or sandwiches are soooo underrated. You can throw a hash brown on a Big Mac and it instantly takes it to another level.
great video as always dude

Currently visiting NY and had the bacon egg and cheese from Lafayette this morning…. BEST bacon egg and cheese sandwich I’ve had in my life!!!
All those bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches look so delicious!
John, you crack me up mate! The comment re "would you put ketchup on a bacon egg and cheese?" and then you said "I say, yes, as long as it's on a roll"! So, if it was in Texas toast, no ketchup? Or a tortilla? lol. I love your work man
😮Texas toast wow good idea
If Ben works for the mta railroad then I say big respect to him . I work for the railways in England , it’s a hard job and sometimes you need a good sandwich at two in the morning.
18 years away from NY and bacon egg and cheese on a bagel is still my go to and favorite
These sandwiches looks super juicy and delicious 😍
Ketchup YES no matter what it’s on!!
NEW YORK is my best city In USA so I'm gonna stick with your videos bro❤❤
a classic NYC BEC is def something I wanna try. We've got a version in Toronto using peameal (Canadian back bacon) on a Kaiser roll and it's sometimes considered the city's unofficial signature food alongside Caribbean patties
Wow I didn’t know that about Toronto
A BEC isn’t that difficult to replicate at home. The charm of a BEC is physically walking in a busy crowded city environment and getting it. Especially if you’re working or a college student in NYU because it’s like a mini oasis during a stressful week
*Fun Fact... here in Canada, Arizona Ice tea as shown here for 99c, is actually close to 2dollars cad in Canada.
So fun fact I went to Washington Iriving HS which is up the block from that deli…. Back in the day we couldn’t bring our phones to school, so the deli guys would charge us 1$ if you bought breakfast and maybe 2 or 3 if you didn’t to hold our phones until the end of the day…. Love you guys
$17 for a BEC is wild. Only ocky way can justify that price because you pay for the entertainment value as well and general ock is a celebrity at this point so it’s well worth it.
I normally don't pay no more than $6 with a small coffee in NYC for a BEC.
I don't need a pop tart in my egg sandwich
You could try to replicate that specialty sandwich at home but it may not work if you don’t know the ingredients and method . Hence I would pay for it
Wow, this is my favorite deli. I love those guys sandwich is beautiful. They are the best. See you guys tomorrow morning.
Living in New York my whole life, I never really thought about bacon egg and cheese being a local thing. I guess I shouldn't take that and the best pizza and bagels for granted. SPK all day, by the way, you can't have it any other way.
Same here. When I started traveling outside of NYC I was shocked that BEC were not a thing for breakfast.

It's not really that local. Plenty of places have it outside of NYC. Every fast food joint has them
Ketchup is a must have with a bacon egg and cheese, I also add black pepper and sometimes hot sauce

Exactly, it's just two words. "Baconeggandcheese, saltpepperketchup
NK, never K
As a New Yorker I agree with Ben that BEC is better on a roll than Bagel and when Ben pulled out the green tea Arizona. He’s official !!

Us New Yorkers are blessed with the best food in the wold. The goat baconeggandcheese really is the best.
I always put ketchup on my eggs. No matter how they are cooked I can’t eat them unless they have ketchup on the eggs. Delicious 😋

Taylor ham egg and cheese has saved my life after benders.
Bacon, egg and cheese on a roll with a regular coffee. NYC breakfast on the go.
I have to check out your friends, TH-cam channel. I grew up in New York and now I’m in Florida and I miss it so much.
BACONEGGANDCHEESESALTPEPPERKETCHUP one word all together NYC CLASSIC
I lived up state for 10 years, moved back to NC and I kinda miss eating BEC on a kaiser roll. everything here is on a biscuit. don't get me wrong a good biscuit like bojangles is amazing but a BEC on kaiser roll just hits different.

Did you know you can buy the hash brown patties frozen at the supermarket and fry them yourself? They are so good!
Does anyone else put spicy salsa on their breakfast sandwich?
It actually works for a Texas style thing if done right
Always, if it doesn’t make me cry, it’s not right.
Salsa yes though not too spicy
Hear me out…wasabi.
I add ghost or scorpion sauce on mine, sometimes sriracha
Born and bred Queens guy here. Ketchup on a BEC? Rookie maneuver. 😂
Stay in Queens snob
Ketchup is the superior condiment for all needs
Yes with ketchup 😀 but needs to be on the kaiser
So good 👍
Salt & pepper is a must
saltpepperketchup (one word) is the only way to do it. Imo needs to be on a bagel, but kaiser sometimes hits the spot if you want something lighter.
When I want to fill up for the morning I’ll get that with an everything bagel from the local shop.
Now that you’ve done NYC. Come across the river to NJ and have the staple Taylor Ham/Pork Roll Egg and Cheese. Gotta do it right.
That’s such a good idea
I just got back from a 4 day trip to NYC for my first time and I loved it. I went to John's of Bleeker Pizzeria as well as Bleecker Street pizza, Sarge's Deli, Top of the Rock, took a cruise on the NYC Ferry for $4, visited DUMBO, ate at a late night halal cart, and saw Lion King on broadway. I also did some things on my own like eat at Buvette and Vinegar Hill House. Thanks so much for your videos.

Your dad has a master degree in coffee ☕️ and bacon 🥓 , eggs 🥚 and cheese 🧀 😋 👌 plus 30th years of experience
Nice places and lights
This is a big controversy amongst my family and friends…I’m of the opinion that you can put whatever you like on your BEC but some say anything else besides butter is blasphemous. I get bored having it the same way all the time…some times I like ketchup, sometimes mayo…however you like it that’s what it is. 80% of the time I’m getting a BEC toasted, pepper, butter! 🤤 please don’t burn my eggs though! A good BEC in the morning makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside, pure NY comfort food!
Butter??? Salt, pepper, ketchup is standard. Anything outside of that is non-traditional.
Yooooo. Butter?
Imma tell you the real game changer, sriracha or tapatio..
I used to get them from a little hole in the wall. The guy would say, "Ok, bacona egg onna roll with a slice. Saltpepperketchup?" They were my mainstay breakfast.
This is what I miss about N.Y.
The best I had was from Amsterdam Cafe in the Upper West Side. Bacon egg n cheese salt pepper ketchup came on a poppy seed roll in foil. Hot chocolate in the winter, Tropicana orange juice or Snapple orangeade in the summer.
Love this video, look that type of comfort food.
I had a BECA bagel last time i was in New York. Even better!
The difference between a deli and a bodega is that the bodega is ran by Dominicans, use to be Puerto Ricans mostly. We call all Arabic ran stores “the a-rabs” or “the Ocs”(ox)
Bacon egg n' cheese on a roll..plus ketchup mayo and pepper...can't go wrong! 😉
its taylor ham, egg and cheese with salt, pepper and ketchup in NJ
Had my first bacon egg and cheese from a bodega Harlem 125 and Lexington.
Bacon egg and cheese sandwiches are the best! It’s my go-to breakfast! 🥓🍳🧀
Quintessential experience is from a bodega. It has four ingredients 1. An egg over medium/hard NEVER SCRAMBLED!!! 2. bacon 3. American cheese 4. a hard roll (only available in the greater NYC area) Bagels, other rolls, nope. Salt, pepper, slight stripe of ketchup are the only condiments.
Was in New York a few weeks ago and tried these bagels, absolutely insane. We really need to learn from you guys in the UK
Corner store food is so good frfr 😁🔥
Does any of these or other spots serve beef or turkey bacon 🥓?
I do ketchup and mayo on my breakfast sandwich. I do put hot salsa and mayo on it also if in not in the mood for ketchup. Try mayo if you haven't
Another good spot for the BEC is Best Bagel & Coffee. Even with it's touristy location, it's outstanding though yes the bagels are better at Tompkins (I generally get it on a roll at Best.)
Spk on a bec is essiential and does anyone else have to add sausage? I love mine with that included
Is ketchup controversial? I've East Way gourmet marked for my next trip!
See the comments, haha.
I’m definitely more of a bodega breakfast sandwich guy. I’m old school New York!
Bacon egg cheese goes on a NYC BEC… no mention of ketchup just like no mention of mustard or honey
Ketchup? That’s a personal choice. Hot sauce? Right on!
BECSPK on a roll all day! Not sure where you're getting that Arizona for $0.99...they're up to $1.49 on the island!
BEC SPK, but the eggs need to be over medium so you get just a bit of runny yolk
Yes. Sooo good.
Those sandwiches look so good!
They were!
The sandwiches have to be good because the of the cut throat competition. In other parts of America sandwiches are mediocre because there is not much competition due to the low population density
@@ramencurry6672 makes sense
How much though? How much is a Bacon egg and cheese in NYC? a good one in Newport RI I. is $6 to $8.
a big YES to ketchup!!!
Yes i would put Ketchup on my bacon egg and cheese sanwich sometimes hot sauce too . @HereBeBarr 🍩🍪🍧🍦🍌😂 plus the ocki way gotta hit em up bro .yeah their a little extreme but damn its crazy madd good though. I also like the oreo cheese cream bagel 😊❤ damb right Lol .
Bacon egg and cheese. Deli guy always ask saltpepperketchup one word, always a yes.
No cheese for me because lactose, and I’m not about that ketchup life on eggs. But egg and bacon sandwich on a bagel at my local deli still good!
I just said the same thing. It has to be said as one word.
If there’s 2 breakfast food that us NYers do right, and dare I say it…..better than any place in America, it’s the baconeggandcheese and the bagel with cream cheese. Now I personally hate all condiments unless it’s soy sauce, lemon pepper sauce, and garlic Parmesan sauce (I’m a picky eater) with a baconeggandcheese I get mine with more eggs (egg whites, because I don’t like egg yolks), salt&pepper, and then some everything but the bagel seasoning. For a bagel with cream cheese, it’s gotta be evenly spread out and I usually get an everything bagel.
Fantastic Jon….my fave would be the first one, I like the soft milk bun. They all looked scrumptious though and I’d be guilty of eating one of those tasty morsels on the way to work. I’m a ketchup on the bun as well…❤❤❤
